I didn't do it, surface looked fine. __________________ Insight #1 - Silver '01 5MT @ 158,388 as of 7/11 - Best Tank: 84.5MPG over 807mi Insight #2 - Silver '01 5MT @ 450,000 as of 1/12 - Best Tank: 86.0MPG over 800mi Insight #3 - Silver '00 5MT, MIMA #163P, BCM Gauge, OBDIIC&C Gauge, BetterBattery @ 228,869 as of 1/12 - Best Tank: 78.4mpg over 687mi

But that was mostly motorway miles not that much gearchanging. __________________ OBDIIC&C $60 inc pcb, switch and obdii plug.

Those look like hot-spots on your flywheel. 6 bolts and $30 at the machine shop = peace of mind. __________________ Mike M., Palm Harbor, FL 2000 Insight 70k, as well as: 2000 CRV, 2002 Ford F150, 1988 Toyota MR2 Supercharged (under construction)
